| | Double Nominees: Greta Garbo & Norma Shearer (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24) |
 | | Garbo, as a determined vamp, and Shearer, as a modern day gal, couldn't have been more opposite from each other, however their films often achieved similar results, as they played women that were both strong and controversial. |
 | | In The Divorcee, Shearer does the unspeakable, and has a one night stand with her husband's best friend when she finds out that he has been unfaithful to her. |
 | | Shearer showed up for the ceremony, and graciously accepted the Oscar for The Divorcee, despite cries from others who felt that her win was the result of a campaign launched by her movie mogul husband, Irving Thalberg. |
